On October 6 in the United States the IBF light heavyweight champion Arthur Beterbiev will make the defense of his title against Callum Johnson. The latter shared his thoughts about the forth-coming fight, saying that he has good chances to win this battle with the Russian puncher.

"He's an excellent puncher, but to be honest, I do not think he's hitting harder than me. We learn this on the day of the battle. I believe that if I show my best, I can deliver a punch to his jaw and he will not stand. Because I do not think that someone can take such a punch. The same can happen to me. If Beterbiev lands well, I can fall. Our fight can last one round, or maybe all twelve. But, anyway, it will be a great fight," said Johnson.
